Insight Consultancy
Born & educated in Norfolk. My early career took me to Cambridge where I became qualified in Medical Technology working at Cambridge University & NHS hospitals. During this time, I began my own journey of spiritual growth qualifying as a healer & counsellor. Developing my own private practice led me to specialize in the field of Addiction.
In recent times, I have been responsible for writing & delivering counsellor training courses at Levels 2 & 3 in HMS prisons & drug rehabilitation centres.
Recently, having trained & qualified in nutrition & weight management, I have been facilitating a series of CBT courses in weight management, being originally part of the NHS ‘change4life’ strategy for healthy living. These have proved to be extremely popular and are now being delivered privately.
As am individual member of the BACP & chairman of Norfolk Healers Association, I am bound by their code of conduct. I work holistically, believing we are each individual and have the right to be treated as such.
COUNSELLING
The aim of counselling is not as some believe to give advice, but to form a safe empathic relationship where personal difficulties may be explored without judgement. A skilled counsellor is able to use active listening to enable the client to gain insight into the issues they may have, and draw upon their own resources to approach their life in new ways. The need for counselling may arise from personal or family issues, bereavement, anxiety, depression or lack of self esteem.
THE COUNSELLING SESSION
The number of sessions varies according to need, with each session lasting 55 minutes. Some clients request a combination of counselling and healing which can be very effective. It is acknowledged that mental and physical wellbeing are closely related and at times both aspects may need help.
Our approach is mainly psycho-dynamic which places emphasis on past as well as present experiences. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is also available and is especially suited to those who face issues of weight management or wish to change their lifestyle.
SPIRITUAL HEALING & RELAXATION
Mind body practices that elicit the relaxation response (RR) have been used worldwide for millennia to prevent and treat dis-ease.
Recent research shows that the RR elicits specific gene expression changes, indicating positive alterations in cellular metabolism, stress response & stimulation of the immune system. The RR is characterised by inducing a feeling of calmness and wellbeing.
It is also evident that a healing principle exists operating independently of any medication. The ability of the body to heal itself, and for this process to be facilitated by the power of touch is instinctive.
The purpose of healing goes beyond securing physical improvement, its aim is to bring into harmony mind, spirit and body, so that one may possess a deeper awareness of life's’ meaning.
